Goodnight to the version of you
that survived without applause.
To the thoughts that spoke too loud
and the ones that said nothing at all.
Let the dark reset your name
to something simple and whole.
Even the moon goes off-duty
without explaining itself.
Sleep not as escape
but as return.
And when the day breaks again
and you are still awake
let it not judge you
just open gently like a window
that remembers the night passed through.
